History[edit | edit source]
The Lair was first mentioned in Rolling Lounge on November 23, 2020 by AZMindroma, who created the channel.[1], originally named #among-us. The channel was made as a joke and was first kept hidden from the public, but the staff team had considered hosting Among Us-related events in the server. However, with the seeming decline of the game, the idea was scrapped. January 31, 2021 was when the first message in the channel was posted[2] and on February 10, selected people were given access to the channel. It was this date when the channel name changes began, with the channel's initial renames being #spamming, #prison and #e-girl-chamber. After several channel name changes, the channel was opened to the public, and the cycle of the channel changes kept going.
Initially, the names were changed manually by AZ. Afterwards, the Blue Heaven bot was used. Then the role of renaming the channel was moved to the Meridion bot.
The initial and only manager of the channel was AZMindroma, hence the old name of AZ's lair. Following his leave from the server due to the April 5, 2023 incident, the channel was archived on June 21, 2023; Nacko took over the channel on July 14, 2023, causing the channel to get unarchived.
On June 19, 2026, Sinerack began to co-manage The Lair after being given permission to do so.
